Nancy Wake: ‘The White Mouse’ Spy Who Stole the Show—Mort Would Approve

The Femme Fatale with a Killer Bicycle Before the war, Nancy Wake was living the high life in France. But when the Germans rolled in, Wake swapped her champagne for secret codes and set about turning the Nazis’ lives upside down. Like Mort, she thrived on chaos, dodging bullets and enemies with nothing but her wits and a killer instinct. While Mort’s got his Glock, Wake pedaled 500 kilometers to replace crucial intelligence, outsmarting the enemy every step of the way.

Covert Ops: Nancy's Real-Life Guerrilla Warfare Wake didn’t just fight—she led. 

Dropped into France by parachute, she organized guerrilla attacks, armed resistance fighters, and personally took out a Nazi guard. Like Mort, she knew when to strike and when to disappear. Her ability to outthink and outmaneuver enemies would’ve made Mort tip his hat, knowing they shared the same tactical brilliance.

The Gestapo’s Worst Nightmare Dubbed “The White Mouse” by the Gestapo. 

Nancy was untouchable. Her knack for evading capture and turning the tables on her enemies mirrored Mort’s signature moves in Mortice in America. Every time the Gestapo thought they had her, she vanished—much like Mort disappearing when the bad guys get too close for comfort.

Medals? She Couldn’t Be Bothered

Sure, she got medals—a bunch of them. From the George Medal to France’s Croix de Guerre, Nancy Wake became one of the most decorated women of WWII. But glory didn’t matter to her, much like Mort’s disdain for the spotlight. It wasn’t about the accolades—it was about the mission.

Nancy Wake’s Legacy Lives On in Mort’s World If Mort had ever crossed paths with Wake, you know they’d have swapped stories over a stiff drink. Both warriors, both tacticians, both loyal to their cause, Nancy Wake and Mort share more than just a love for covert ops—they share a belief that justice is always worth fighting for, no matter the cost.
